A database for the population at risk is required for monitoring, surveillance and organization of home health care. This study aim was to geo-visually display the distribution of CCA in northeast Thailand, using a geographic information system and Google Earth. Materials and Methods: A cross-sectional survey was carried out in 9 sub-districts and 133 villages in Chum Phuang district, Nakhon Ratchasima province during June and October 2015. Data on demography, and the population at risk for CCA were combined with the points of villages, sub-district boundaries, district boundaries, and points of hospitals in districts, then fed into a geographical information system. After the conversion, all of the data were imported into Google Earth for geo-visualization. Results: A total of 11,960 from 83,096 population were included in this study. Females and male were 52.5%, and 47.8%, the age group 41-50 years old 33.3%. -

TAT Mumbai Director's Message Dear travel partner, Namaste from Tourism Authority of Thailand, Mumbai! This month as we go forth into our second fiscal year in India since the opening of our Mumbai office, we stand on the threshold of launching our heightened marketing initiatives. Our efforts to promote Thailand as a value for money up-market destination will be further bolstered with a strong focus on promoting niche segments such as golf, wedding, film industry and key quality shopping experiences. I am also pleased to inform you that on the 4th of October our Mumbai office recently concluded a successful workshop in Colombo, Sri Lanka at the Cinnamon Grand Hotel as part of our initiatives to enhance bilateral relations with the Sri Lankan travel fraternity. Closer to home; since September we have been conducting an educational programme for front-line travel staff across 7 key cities in India which will continue into the month of November. During the current period, we have successfully completed a batch in each of the cities of Mumbai, Pune and Ahmedabad. This unique programme will aide in developing the current level of awareness of Thailand's culture & heritage, spa & wellness, nature and adventure activities which in turn will enhance customer experience. As a reward, Top 10 performers will receive a certification at a ceremony in Bangkok during the month of November. For this month's destination focus, we have chosen Koh Samui - the third largest island in Thailand & the second most popular island destination in the Kingdom. As always, I thank you for your continued support. -

Success Factors in Community-Based Tourism in Thailand: the Role of Luck, External Support, and Local Leadership
Tourism Planning & Development, Volume 11, Issue 1, February 2014 http://dx.doi.org/10.1080/21568316.2013.852991 Success Factors in Community-Based Tourism in Thailand: The Role of Luck, External Support, and Local Leadership NICK KONTOGEORGOPOULOS*, ANUWAT CHURYEN** AND VARAPHORN DUANGSAENG** *International Political Economy Program, University of Puget Sound, 1500 North Warner, Tacoma, WA 98416, USA and **School of Tourism Development, Maejo University, 63 Moo 4, Chiang Mai - Phrao Road, Sansai, Chiang Mai 50290, Thailand ABSTRACT The dominant narrative regarding tourism in Thailand centers on the various negative social and environmental consequences of rapid growth, but in the midst of this explosive expansion of conventional tourism, a less recognized story has recently emerged. Due to the efforts of researchers, environmental activists, non-governmental organizations, and public officials, community-based tourism (CBT) has become in the past decade an important component of the domestic tourism market, and signifies trends that are more encouraging than those associated with more conventional forms of tourism in Thailand. While it is true that some rural communities in Thailand struggle to plan, initiate, and sustain CBT projects, it is nevertheless possible, with the right combination of circumstances, to pursue successful CBT. The paper explores the emergence of CBT in Thailand, and examines the case study of Mae Kampong, a village in the Northern Thai province of Chiang Mai that is renowned nationally as a showcase CBT community. Using data and observations gathered during more than 30 research or study-tour visits to Mae Kampong, this paper argues that fortunate geographical conditions, external support, and transformational leadership represent the most important determinants of success for CBT in Thailand. -

Excavations at Ban Tamyae and Non Ban Kham, Phimai Region, Northeast Thailand
Excavations at Ban Tamyae and Non Ban Kham, Phimai Region, Northeast Thailand Received October 1986, revised July 1989 DA VID J. WELCH AND J. R. MCNEILL INTRODUCTION DURING 1979 AND 1980 the Khorat Basin Archaeological Project (KBAP)-a co operative project involving researchers from the University of Hawaii, the Fine Arts Department of Thailand, and Chulalongkorn University-conducted survey and excavation of sites in the vicinity of the town of Phimai in northeast Thailand. Phimai formerly served as a regional Khmer sacred, administrative, and commerical center from about A.D. 1000 to 1300. Archaeological and historical evidence indi cated that Phimai might have been an important center before its integration into the Khmer state. The approach taken in the research was regional, investigating the development of Phimai as a major center by focusing upon the towns that formed alternative or minor centers and upon the villages and farms that constituted the hinterland for Phimai and supported its development. The primary focus of the investigations was on the fortified or moated sites, sites surrounded with earth walls and moats, first identified on aerial photographs by Peter Williams-Hunt (1950). The goals of the research included the location, mapping, and dating of the moated sites in the Phimai region and determination of the function, date of construction, and present condition of the earthworks at these sites. Two hypotheses were pro posed for testing: (1) the concentration of population into these moated sites was associated with the practice of intensive wet rice agriculture, and (2) these sites were centers for long-distance exchange. -
